Who Wore It Better? Luscious Leather LBD

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:00:22 -0800

Can't seem to find the gusto to don a leather dress? Look to Kate Moss and Carine Roitfeld for inspiration. No doubt, the two are working it in their identical long-sleeve leather dresses. Kate Moss added some rockability to the high-neck cut by accessorizing with sexy bare legs, a studded belt, and pointy-toe pumps. In comparison, the French Vogue editor covered her stems with sexy, sheer black tights and tough, suede ankle boots. Notice how Moss tossed her hair up, while Carine kept hers down. Tell me, which leather lovin' lady do you prefer?

Celebrity Style: Lindsay Price

FabSugar — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 11:00:22 -0800

A leather dress is one way to shake up the red carpet. Lindsay Price shook it real good at the USC Music Video Program gala in LA. She showed up wearing a fitted leather dress topped with a brown belt, finished with stacked bangles and leopard pumps. Short, not so sweet, but to the point. The actress reminds us that adding a belt to a frock can completely change its appearance for the better.

Trend Alert: The Leather Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 09:00:22 -0700

Reasons we love leather: We have been on a leather jacket binge for months (seven total), Barneys's Simon Doonan and Julie Gilhart cheekily taught us how to wear it, we know how to prevent it from wrinkling - we're just leather McLovin'. And we know everyone else is feeling the love when good girls like Emmy Rossum bust out in a black leather bustier dress by Ina Soltani. Damn, girl. We asked you how you liked a Marc by Marc leather dress this Summer; how do you feel about the leather dress now?

Marc by Marc Jacobs Leather Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 06:00:22 -0700

Ignore the strangely ghoulish look on the model's face and take a look at this Marc by Marc Jacobs Leather Dress ($828). The shift-shaped cut and slight cowl neck lend a classy '70s vibe and I'm loving the zipper detailing on the back. Rarely do I see a leather dress done right so props to Marc. Do you agree?

Kristen Stewart in Cookies and Cream Jason Wu: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 11:32:44 -0800

We all seem to prefer Kristen in ladylike looks so I'm sure this cookes and cream Jason Wu dress will meet your approval. She donned the sweetly embellished frock at a New Moon benefit screening in Knoxville, TN. The sweetheart neck and flared silhouette are darling, and the belt adds further polish. Black Sergio Rossi leather peeptoe platforms elongate and match the maven's dark locks. Another winner for Kristen?

Kristen Stewart in Sheer and Black Leather Elizabeth and James: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 10:38:35 -0800

Yesterday we discussed Kristen's life aquatic in Proenza Schouler - I'm surprised more of you didn't love it. I thought it was youthful and unique. The Luna Nueva star stopped in Madrid in her favorite vampy color. Black. But she mixed her sheer top, black-bustier Elizabeth and James mini dress with blood-red pumps. Girl's got some stems, albeit pale ones, but that's the way Edward likes them. Do you like?

Kristen Stewart in Futuristic Sheer Balenciaga: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:34:36 -0800

She's smiling wide - and her panties are showing! - I think she likes her latest New Moon premiere look. I can't blame Kristen, it's a brand spankin' new Balenciaga Spring '10 dress. The actress stuck with her favorite dark palette but the varying textures keep things interesting. And sexy - look, she's showing slight cleavage via sheer panels. Black booties and a black leather bracelet serve as minimal accessories. You dig?

Trend Alert: Berry-Stained Leather

FabSugar — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Congratulations red leather and relatives, you are officially noncheesy anymore. Berry-stained leather, as exhibited by the ravenous Rachel Weisz in Spain, is utterly appetizing. Of course, a lot depends on the accompaniments. Weisz smartly wore her smooth berry leather jacket with an adorable blue floral dress - both Marc Jacobs Resort - and killer black Barbara Bui suede sandals; she did no wrong. Keeping things feminine and unique will let your raspberry, blueberry, or tayberry piece pop.
